Went out this morning and had two coyotes run into our stand with a Distressed Jack Rabbit call. I shot mine at about 100 yards and dropped him. My buddy missed his about 180 yards. Once I saw he missed I took a shot at the second coyote and missed as well a tough running shot at about 200 yards. Had a great time! I used my old Winchester Model 70 Westerner in .223 Cal with a Hornady Superforance 55gr GMX bullet. Man that bullet did a number on that dog! Soft ball size entry hole and a complete pass through almost whole length of body (Showed his better side, lol). Gonna go back to the Vmax bullet, lot less drama.

Very nice packer58, what type of guns, ammo, and calls did you use. Just curious what is working for other folks.

700 Rem 22-250, hand loads / 55 gr Nosler BT, FoxPro, Lightning Jack. It was a pretty good morning, it had been getting REALLY cold (-20 or so) for a few days and the dogs were really coming to the call. I made 5 stands that morning and called 5 dogs. Couldn't get on the last two as they were flashing through the sage brush. I wanted to stay and call all day but my truck was back at camp plugged into my generator, Power Stroke + extreme cold = generator/block heater Anyway, killed a nice buck on the second to last day of the late archery and then caped it off with a few dogs.

One more grey fox hits the dirt, my buddies son shot his first grey fox today. He used his dads TC 223 cal rifle with a 50gr Nosler Ballistic tip traveling 3500 fps! he hit this guy square behind the shoulder missing all bones. We had a hard time finding the bullet's entrance and exit!! When we did it was tiny holes.
